I'm using RoboHelp HTML Edition (from RoboHELP Office 7.0) to create a Web
Help project. Has anyone experienced any of the following effects when
accessing a Web Help index using IE 4.0? This works just fine using
Netscape. I'm on digest, so if anyone has any suggestions or solutions
please send them directly to <rtuohy -at- netg -dot- com>.
Thanks!

1. Launch WebHelp and click on the Index link.
2. Begin to type an indexed word into the "Type in the keyword to find" text
box.
***Problem: the index does not jump to the first word in the list that
starts
with the corresponding letter.
3. Finish typing the word and press the Enter key.
***Problem: a message appears saying that the topic doesn't exist. (I can
see
it in the list, though.)
4. Press the Backspace key to delete the last character that was typed.
***Problem: this causes the browser to display the previous page in the
session's history. (This happens regardless of whether the text box has
focus.)
